13 Quick Lessons on How to Select GreatGrowth & Momentum Stocks

#1 Basics: Understand the 360 degree approach I use

The biggest question in stock trading: How to reduce the available 10,000+ US stocks down to a list of 50? That's 0.5%!!

It's not that I am a believer in fundamentals or technicals, I use both as a criteria to select high-potential stocks and to reduce the number of stocks on my watchlist.

I use 3 different criteria / angles to look at a stock:

1. Technicals: I want to select only the strongest stocks in the stock market that can really outperform the indices.

2. Fundamentals: Sales and EPS growth are driving the stock's price.

3. Story: I want to make sure that the company can even growth bigger in future.

#2 Basics: Understand WHY the price of a stock is going up

The price is not going up because of the story or the fundamentals. The price of a stocks goes up because somebody buys it and sellers are only willing to sell for a higher price. You really need to understand that!!

Institutions (funds, companies, banks …) are the real driver of the market. They need to buy large positions in stocks over many, many weeks and months.

I follow the institutions by analyzing charts and looking for their buying activity (accumulation visible in the volume + big price moves).

Now comes the important part: Institutions are not stupid. They have dozens of analysis, good contacts to companies and pay people for some deep insights. THEY OFTEN SEE THINGS COMING THAT I CAN'T SEE! Why? Because I have not the same analyst power as they have. I am a single-person company!

Conclusion: If institutions accumulate a stock heavily, there must be reason (expected or current big growth, potential take-over …) and it's my job to find that out and find stocks that institutions are accumulating heavily.

The danger of a major offensive is on one section of the front: interview with Major Hetman

The Russian occupation army's preparations
war.obozrevatel.com/ukr/rosiya-got…
for an offensive this spring in one of three directions – Sumy, Kharkiv or Zaporizhia – have been known since last year.

However, there are objective reasons why a large-scale offensive operation cannot be expected.

This is the lack of necessary resources in the occupying country of Russia, primarily not human, but technical and military equipment resources.

For this reason,

the enemy, even if he attempts a breakthrough on a new section of the front, will not be able to advance far into Ukrainian territory

3/
Currently, the most threatening situation is in the Lyman direction, where the enemy has concentrated ten times more forces than the Ukrainian army has here.

However, the enemy has learned to quickly transfer reserves along the front line, and therefore, in fact, attempts to intensify its actions are possible anywhere.

This opinion was expressed in an exclusive interview with Oleksiy Getman ,
facebook.com/alexeyhetman/
- a veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war and a reserve major of the Armed Forces of Ukraine .

– Head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council Andriy Kovalenko warned that the Russian occupation army may make another attempt to break through on the front as early as May.

Ukrainian servicemen believe that the danger primarily threatens the Sumy and Kharkiv regions.

- Do you consider such a danger to be real?

BREAKING. THREAD.

A very activist Montana judge has temporarily blocked a bill (HB 121) that was signed into law protecting women’s privacy in bathrooms.

The reasoning is spectacular. Just wait for this:

1/

The judge found there is no evidence that it protects women’s privacy to keep men out of women’s bathrooms!

Um….excuse me. What does this judge think women want privacy from? 2/

This is a bit technical legally but the court finds that TG status is a suspect class which gets special protection. Why? Bc equal treatment on the basis of s*x is a fundamental right.

But genderism isn’t ON the basis of s*x at all!!!!! Talk about mixing up concepts. 3/

🚨 The U.S. Bond Yield Drop
A Game Changer
U.S. 10-year yields fell from 4.8% to 4.02%, saving $300B on a $37T debt! Each 0.01% drop saves $37B. With $9T to renew, yields may hit 3.02%
could this spark a shift to markets like India? 🌍 🧵👇

India joins the FTSE Russell index in Sep 2025, expecting $20-25B in inflows (9.35% of a $4.7T index).
At 6.8% yield vs. USA's 4.02%, 2.78% gap is huge!

🙅Why India Lags Behind USA
Challenges:
Rupee at 87 vs USD hedging costs 4%, cutting yield to 2.46% (vs. U.S. 4.02%).

Just finished listening to a 4h 30min @AcquiredFM podcast on the complete history of IPL cricket.

Here's the full story of how one sports franchise became the fastest-growing league in the world, now on track to surpass the NFL 🧵

As always, ask your questions below:

In 2007, Lalit Modi, an Indian media mogul, pitched a new cricket league that would forever change the sport.

Inspired by the NFL and EPL, his vision was huge - short, city-based matches with cheerleaders, Bollywood stars and primetime TV slots.

But how did it unfold?

The seeds were sown during the 2007 T20 World Cup. Yuvraj Singh had just smashed six sixes in an over against England's Stuart Broad. T20 cricket had won as THE format to captivate audiences.

Modi saw this as an opportunity to transform cricket from a traditional 5-day sport into a global entertainment phenomenon.

In Mexicali, a city in #Mexico, where the sun scorches the land and the air is choked with pollution from traffic, factories, and dust, one mother decided it was time to act. Her children, just six and nine years old, had been struggling with frequent respiratory infections and worsening asthma for the younger one. Though she hesitated at first, unsure whether sharing her child's image would make a difference. she soon realised that silence was no longer an option.

In Jharia, India, 12 year old Suresh suffers from chronic bronchitis, his home sits atop underground coal fires burning for decades. His story is stitched into the fabric of urgency. This photograph, and many more, capture the countless struggles faced in Jharia, thanks to the remarkable work of @vishalsinghbook, whose lens and lifelong commitment have helped shine a light on the crisis while working toward solutions on the ground. #JustTransition

Did you know 70% of India’s trucks run empty on return trips?

This company, founded in 2014 by IIT alumni, addressed this inefficiency and saved 2.5 crores of empty kilometers each month.

Here’s their journey

India's logistics costs are 14% of GDP, higher than China's 10%.

In 2014, two ex-JP Morgan analysts, Pranav Goel and Uttam Digga, were stunned by the chaos faced by SMEs in moving goods.

They teamed up with techie Vikas and launched Porter to simplify logistics.

Inspired by Uber, they built a marketplace for trucks—linking businesses with mini-truck drivers through a clean, simple app.

The early days were scrappy.

Operations ran on spreadsheets.

Customer calls, driver tracking—everything was manual.

This is sabotage of Liberal candidates using identity politics to destroy reputations.

Anyone under the impression these two people are pro Canada? No.

They’re antiestablishment anarcho syndicalists seeking to facilitate the social collapse we see occurring in US right now.

This bullshit needs to be exposed!

It’s occurring on both ends of extreme politics.

When you align these efforts side by side, they’re the same.

They’re exactly the same.

Demonstrating clearly that the accusation I’ve made so many times about far left activists is 💯 accurate. Radical progressive left are NOT trying to win, they’re demoralizing voters.

Here’s one long form version. TL/DR: A series of administrations had to show impossible results to the national electorate, so they mined the future for the present and the more vulnerable for the less.

Go back to the ‘70s. The US was in a kind of bankruptcy.

https://twitter.com/lokijulianus/status/1907953484499968208

The outsized economic growth from implementing low-hanging fruit (highways, electricity and plumbing - the last US household to get indoor plumbing got it about then, adopting various technologies developed in WW2, etc) was slowing.

The entry of the Boomers into the workforce also bid down wages. And the US was already starting to have industrial malaise - the auto bankruptcies were on the horizon; Japan was outcompeting in steel and shipbuilding, etc.

In 2011, my papa was laid off from a Whirlpool manufacturing plant, the kind that had for so long made America great. In the wake of the financial crisis, the C-suite had decided to offshore operations to Mexico.

The plant they shuttered was a 1.2 million sq ft manufacturing plant, and overnight, 1,000 people lost their jobs. Many of whom had been working there for decades.

My papa was 57 years old when he got laid off. He had worked at that very same plant for over 30 years, and snap just like that, it was all gone.

1/6

When I was a little girl, from as far back as I could remember, my papa woke up at 3:30 am and drove the 40 minutes to the plant from the rural 1,200-person town every single day. And for 30 years, he worked what were often 10-12 hour shifts with no complaints.

I grew up a Navy brat, so I didn’t get to see my grandparents except for a few months during the summer, but I remember my papa exerting the last drop of his energy so he could spend time with us going to the creek, building us a tree house, riding horses, and playing cowboys and Indians.

Every evening, starting from when I was in grade school, my papa and I would sit in the living room and watch the History Channel, Animal Planet, and Bill O’Reilly and hee-haw together about what the Democrats were doing, as much as an eight-year-old can.

My papa and my nana had been together since they graduated high school; they got married at barely 18 and had my mom less than a year later and my aunt soon after that.

They had a small homestead, owned most of what they had outright, and they were poor, but poor doesn’t have to mean that much when you can work the land.

My nana worked as the local school’s secretary, and my papa had good benefits with his manufacturing job. They only ever went out to eat on special occasions. McDonald’s was a birthday-only type of affair. They had a one-acre garden, a few head of cattle, would can fruits and vegetables at the end of every summer, and freeze chopped okra, blueberries, meat from wild hogs and venison in an old chest freezer in the workshop.

2/6

Despite never having been on a plane and seldom ever having been outside of Arkansas, they managed to put both my mom and aunt through college and graduate school without requiring them to incur even a dime of debt. This was the 1990s.

Then at the age of 57, my papa and 1,000 of his coworkers were thrown away like a piece of trash after giving that company decades of their lives. And what were they told to do? What was their consolation prize?

Learn. To. Code.

My papa and nana were born in the 1950s in a place that was quite literally the Wild West just mere decades before their birth.

Growing up, neither of them had running water—they drew water from a well, washed up in a tin tub heated over a fire, and went to the restroom in an outhouse. They were both educated in a one-room schoolhouse and both came from families that relied on their farm’s livestock to feed themselves. People like my grandparents built this nation. They built this nation for their children.

But because the thing they sought to build wasn’t a stock portfolio or real estate portfolio, the preservation of their homes and communities was not something that Wall Street nor Washington saw as having enough value to be anything more than apathetic about blowing up.
